The Institute for the Conservation of Tropical Environments (ICTE) is a
501(c)3 registered non-profit dedicated to research, conservation and
training in tropical environments with a special focus on Madagascar. They
work very closely with their Malagasy NGO counterpart, the Madagascar
Institute pour la Conservation des Environnements Tropicaux. ICTE seeks
funds to purchase a tract of degraded agricultural land in southeastern
Madagascar, which when reforested will link together the remaining habitat
fragments of the critically endangered Great Bamboo Lemur, one of the most
endangered primates in the world.

 Funding successfully raised for purchase of Golden Lion Tamarin corridor.
A unique partnership of the Brazilian
federal government, local and international
organizations announces the purchase of a 100-hectare
(247-acre) parcel in Rio de Janeiro state, linking
tiny “islands” of what remains of Brazil’s Atlantic
Coastal Forest, one of the world’s most species-rich but
most endangered tropical forests. Protection and restoration
of the forest to establish this small but crucial
corridor will help assure a future for endangered golden
lion tamarin monkeys and more than 35
endangered bird species existing only in this region.
The restoration of the corridor will also help our
planet’s future by “soaking up” between 10,000 and
30,000 tons of carbon over the next 30 years.
